Todays update for LotsOMobs doesn't only add new features, it also changes the way LotsOMobs is build up.

Previously you would download one, big jar file that contained all the LotsOMobs features, and needed to play with all of them. Now I have devided LotsOMobs into submods. This means that you can pick which modules you want, and don't want. The current modules are:

LotsOMobs Core

LotsOMobs Forrest and Plains

LotsOMobs Underwaterlife

The Core module is always required. It adds all items, and has all the resources required to get other modules to run. It does not contain any mobs, or reciped. Only core stuff needed for the other modules.

Forrest and Plains adds all the stuff related to forrests and plains. Like Deers, Board, Ants, Gekkos, Moles etc, and all the items related with recipes.

Underwaterlife adds underwater mobs and their items.

Todays update also adds more underwater mobs:

Big fish and small fish, these can be found in the underwaterlife module

Example of module combinations that work/not work:

Combo 1:Core, FaP, UwL, Will work, and has all the features for 1.8

Combo 2:Core, FaP, Will work, and only has the forrest features

Combo 3:FaP, UwL, Will not work because it doesnt include the core module

I have been really slow with updating to minecraft 1.8. The original plan was to skip this update, as updating is a long process, and it is really boring. So considering the fact that I have limited free time, the plan was to stay with 1.7.10 and add new features. But today I have started with a 1.8 version of LotsOMobs. This new version will be recoded from scratch, and might not include all the features that are in the 1.7.10 version. But it might turn out even better, as Ive become better at programming and modding. LotsOMobs is my first propper mod and I have learned most of my "modding skils" from working on LotsOMobs. So the newest features are a lot better than the first ones. Updating to 1.8 is going to take a lot of time, but I will release a new build every now and then, so drop by the site to take a look :D

LotsOMobs is 3 years old today, and what better way to celebrate than a fresh update, full of new awesome features. Here is the list:

Improved underwater vision with Swimming masks

Added Flippers

Added Oxygen tanks and diving helmets

Added Seaweed plants

Added Kelp

Added Starfish

Added Sea Urchins

Fixed mob spawn rates

Fixed loot in dungeons/pyramids being 90% pineapples

Please send me some feedback on world generation. Im not sure how heavy the seaweed generation is. Ive managed to remove most freezing by decreasing the spawn-rate, but my PC is pretty powerfull so feedback from more people might optimalize it even more!
